Breaking-News >> TodayHistory British economist Malthus was born.
Malthus is an English economist, author of the book Demographics. Thomas Robert Malthus (February 13, 1766, December 23, 1834) lived richly, did not go to school as a child, and studied at home with family teachers. In 1784, he received a Cambridge Jesuit College scholarship and went to school. During his university period, his schoolwork was good, and in 1788 he was one of the nine first-class qualifiers at the University High School Student Exam, and was appointed as an assistant pastor at Arsh in Sarri County after obtaining a Bachelor of Arts degree at the University of Cambridge. At the end of the 18th century, with the British Industrial Revolution, a large number of workers were unemployed and the problem of people’s impoverishment became increasingly prominent. How to solve this question, each family drew their views, and his article “The Principle of Population, the Impact on Social Progress in the Future, and the Commentary Against the Thinking of Godwin, Kantors and Other Writers” was published in an anonymous form. He raised a question that the development of society must consider how material production and population growth should be balanced, which is clearly a question worthy of consideration. Unfortunately, in order to solve this contradiction, he proposed an absurd theory. The separation of population numbers and consumer means is a natural law, only by means of making the working people starve and live alone, can weaken Malthus's second economic achievement was his land rental theory; he advocated protectionism, and he advocated the revitalization of agriculture by raising food prices. His achievements in political economics resulted in his election in 1824 as one of the ten members of the Royal Society of Literature of England, with a fairly high reputation in Europe.
